I don't believe a zombie uprising will happen. The robot revolt is definitely more believable.
But if it did and we're talking slow zombies, zombies that can't open doors, then I could just hang out in here and watch them. We have glass doors. Burning them sounds like fun, and if they were in a mob it would spread and destroy them quickly, but that might burn the house as well. I live far from town so it'd take a while for them to get here if they picked up on the existence of human out here to begin with.
As for a bashing weapon, I'd go with the cracked aluminum bat. But I'd be more into shooting them from afar to get rid of them. Of course, I don't really know how to use a shotgun so my dad would handle that.
